Ballantine On Polk Street

Towering six footer
Thug disturbed by a presence
I beg your pardon,
Mr. Peace Keeper
Bearing the hands
Of a social leper
Mobile body parts
Pierced by butchers
A scene of twine
Seducing ballantine
Walking the streets
Praying for raindrops
To cleanse this perversion
Salavating peepers
Dripping child
Starved and monkey-faced
Sharing an hour
Parked eighteen wheeler
Things we do for money
Twenty bucks valued customer
Grinning pixie stick
Meets the over-achiever
